What can you do Stephanie?One is bound to miss a thing or two...especialment since I am not there during la Tour de France..Maybe they can change le date?Merci!115.00 EUR = 155.178 USD 115.00 EUR = 102.777 GBP102.00 GBP = 153.953 USD Not so much ouch if you skip a few fancy dinners out Michelle.I hope this can not be Michelle O worrying about le prix...Oh for a pair of Lanvin cap-toe sneakers I would give up dinner forever...

I find that I keep being pulled towards anything yellow lately...or anything tasting lemony. Maybe it is that I am just ready for summer. Today I found a spectacular buttery yellow peony at the nursery for my garden.

Thank you for the jaune lesson. I will always remember it is almost June, in date and in spelling... I can see why it is love at first sight with various shapes of Fauchon's squared tarts au citron, they are so beautiful, but yes... my mouth waters for the glistening Pierre Herme version. David

Merci beaucoup Carol pour tes conseilles - naturellement if I were Madame Obama I would have ballerines in every possible colour. I would also be obliged to have les macarons flown into DC daily from Laduree. As it is I am a not a first lady, am in the UK but your daily slice of parisienne colour makes me grin from ear to ear - keep up the good work!!

I am French, and I love your "articles" (don't know the english word) about Paris where I was born in Montmartre. I never realised how yellow Paris can be. Maybe it's to figure sunshine when it's raining... Keep on writting and "bravo!".

You have made me so anxious to leave for Paris on Tuesday, it will be our first time. Our son who is a chef lives in Italy, so after visiting Paris we will be going to Italy.I will certainly let you know how we enjoyed Paris!Au Revior...

PARIS in yr Mailbox!

Hi I'm Carol Gillott,
My Mom taught me watercolors at 5 and I'm still at it. Now I live by the Seine on l'Ile Saint-Louis. Do consider subscribing to my Paris letters and maps on Etsy and enjoy a taste of Paris in your mailbox every month to savor with a hot chocolate and croissant. I paint Paris dreams.
